Recently Michigan has been trying to promote tourism in the state to boost the economy with the slogan "Pure Michigan" and I've gotta say that growing up here I love this place. We live near lake Michigan, we've got the seasons and their colors and today I found one more thing to love about this state in Holland.

We’ve been talking about going for a while now and since it’s now tulip season, we’re moving to Philly on Monday and today was date day it was a prime opportunity.

On the way we stopped at a little pond about a minute from our house to check out some geese and their goslings.

Centennial Park.

An interesting fountain.

Cool texture! I think they were called Swan’s Wings.

Trying to be artistic:)

Dancers in wooden clogs...I think they wore like five pairs of socks.

A quick lesson from Ben.

This was like my third shot of Deanne in her elegant squatting position because I eventually decided I wanted to include the yellow hydrant.

My dad liked the toilets in the background.

This is art!

Tourist shops on Windmill Island.

Nice clogs!

Cool Tree.

Just a cool picture

The Windmill! Over 100 years old, hid Jews in WWII, shipped to Holland MI, the only one like in the U.S.
